REMOVING WRINKLES
The covering of your model may develop wrinkles during shipping. Use a covering iron (HAN101) with a sealing iron
sock (HAN141) to remove them. Start with a lower heat setting and use caution while working around areas where the
colors overlap to prevent separating the colors. It is also advised to use caution around the clear windows and wing
tips as these items are plastic and could distort with excessive heat. Avoid using too much heat, which could also
separate the colors. Placing a cool damp cloth on adjacent colors will also help prevent the separation of the colors
while removing wrinkles. Only use a heat gun (HAN100) once the covering iron has been used.
BUILDING PRECAUTIONS
Prepare the work surface prior to beginning the build. The surface should be soft and free of any sharp objects. We
recommend resting the airframe parts on a soft towel or pit mat to prevent scratching or denting the surface of the
aircraft.
TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
When transporting and storing your model, you will need a minimum of 80 inches (2m) in length, and 26 inches
(65cm) in height to accommodate the size of the fuselage. We also recommend the use of wing and stabilizer bags to
help protect these surfaces during transport and storage. The control horns and linkages can cause damage to other
surfaces even when placed in storage bags. Always transport and store the wings and stabilizer so the linkages do not
contact other panels to prevent damage.
REPLACEMENT COVERING
Your model is covered with UltraCote® fi lm in the following colors. If repairs are required, order these coverings to
make those repairs.
HANU866 True Red
HANU870 White
HANU874 Black
CHECKING BLIND NUTS
When building the aircraft, you will be required to thread machine screws into blind nuts. We recommend pre-threading
the screws to make sure the blind nuts are clear of any debris. If the screws do not thread in easily, clear the threads
using the appropriate tap and tap handle.
AILERON INSTALLATION
1. Separate the aileron and hinges from the wing.
2. Apply a small amount of petroleum jelly to the fl ex point of
each hinge. Flex the hinge to work the petroleum jelly into the
hinge. This will help in preventing the epoxy from getting into
the hinge.
3. Check the fi t of the hinge in the aileron. The pin in the hinge
will align with the bevel of the aileron.
4. Check that the hinges are perpendicular to the hinge axis.
5. Remove the hinge. Mix 1/4 ounce (7.5cc) of 30-minute epoxy.
